Day One : Hilly and Windy

Post date: 14-Aug-2010 17:37:29

St Davids to Carmarthen. 45 miles in 3 hrs 30.

Battling crosswinds with no hedges for shelter as they negociated 12% hills our cyclists survive their first stage. Newgale hill tested their brakes well.The lack of teashops en route was annoying but meant they arrived at the Boars Head just before the heavens opened, so every cloud....

With bikes safely stowed in the cellar they can enjoy a shower and supper.

Carmarthen appears to be hosting a Merlin Convention - so hope the bikes don't turn into brooksticks in the night.

SNACKS
